Hi Brian
Jason and I have just returned to Canada after having a wonderful time in South Africa. We wanted to extend our sincere thanks for taking us out on such an exciting and fun adventure with the quads. We had a blast - and it was very much appreciated that you took us out just the two of us and on a sunday no less!!!
We look forward to making a return trip to Africa sometime in the future and would love to return to perhaps join you on an overnight adventure. If your longer trips are anything similar to the short excursions, they will be well worth it.
Thanks again and all the best!

On behalf of the Finance team at King James Advertising I would like to extend our gratitude and appreciation to you and the team for facilitating a truly memorable team building session.
Other than achieving our goals, we found the Orienteering Programme very informative and it also served to improve our communication levels. Shaun (sp) was especially well informed and imparted his vast knowledge with much professionalism.
The quad biking proved to be the highlight of our stay. While I was cognisant of the fact that we were not going to achieve any meaningful team cohesion from this activity, the fun factor alone was enough to cause my team to leave with broad smiles across their faces. Could you please convey our thanks and appreciation to Stuart and Barbara who led us on the 2 hour forest and mountain tour?
Thank you once again for hosting us. Our colleagues are very envious after looking at the pics and listening to our stories – I’m almost certain that another department from the King James Group will be calling on your services in the near future.
Yours sincerely
Cameron Benjamin
Group Financial Director

We decided to have an outdoor outing to celebrate Women’s Day, rather than some sit-down function in a hotel. The spirit was simply marvelous and everyone said they had a great time. It was an excellent way of getting the females together outside of their working environment. The comments and the attitude towards the outing as a team building exercise was just brilliant and I am glad everyone had a fun time.

Hi Brian
Many thanks for an absolutely brilliant experience. The day was everything we hoped for and more. We all had an awesome time and are all mad keen to come again, this time probably for an overnight tour. We are also working out ways to incorporate the families as well, the bikes were great, easy to handle, having not ridden a bike for a long time we gained confidence again after the first half an hour riding, good choice of machine.
There were also at least 3 or 4 guys whom I had invited and who were keen to come, but for various reasons couldn’t make it this time round. I have been spent a large part of the morning neglecting work and describing the day to them. Suffice to say that they are all raring to come out as well.
Particular thank s to Stuart, who was an excellent host and guide and thanks also to whomever makes the delicious lunches.
Great to have met you and look forward to seeing you again soon.
Cheers

Dear Brian,
My work colleague Dave Gaussen and I having recently turned the corner at the big five O were looking for a bit of off road bike adventure, both of us owned XT 500/550 Yamaha’s and had hardly ridden for five years or so. We searched various packages and selected yours because the bikes on offer Suzuki 250’s would be lighter and not take off without us in the saddle plus you are only a hour out of Cape Town.
We were both however a bit skeptical about these ‘small’ 250’s, but they were fantastic during our two day two hundred kilometer excursion around Grabouw and surrounding towns and the longer we rode the more impressed we were, electric starter and all. We rode through swollen rivers and badly rain/storm affected roads and these bikes with fantastic forgiving suspension were unbelievable, they took on anything and everything and when we did get stuck on the odd occasion they weren’t too heavy to manhandle.
The overnight accommodation was basic but adequate. The routes never overlapped and between you and your knowledgeable staff we saw parts of Grabouw and surrounding towns like we had never seen before. Your experience in mapping out the world famous Cape Epic cycle race plays a big part of where to go and as a permit holder and key holder for many of the gates we were able to ride where not everyone can.
Thanks for a great two days which I will do again sometime, definitely in winter again as the variety of frogs that came out of my wet boots were amazing.
Kindest regards

Hi Brian
Thank you to you and your assistants for going the extra mile
for our Associates’ year-end function on Saturday. We
have had fantastic feedback and each and every one thoroughly
enjoyed the day. Please also thank Maryke on our behalf for
her excellent lunch. The awning was a very good idea, but it
seems that if you intend to do this in the future, there should
be a ‘smoker’s corner’ so that no one can
unintentionally set the forest alight! I also now feel that
I can relax as no one broke any bones or had a bad fall!!
Kind regards

Hi Brian
What a perfect way to end a great weekend. Thank you so much
for all your assistance in finding a suitable day for all of
us. Much fun was had by all and we now know a little more about
the beautiful land we live in.
Have a super day and we wish all the best in the future.

Hi Brian
Thank you for a wonderful and informative tour of the Boland
mountains and surrounds. It was the absolute highlight of my
long weekend away!!
As an ex scrambler/enduro rider, it was wonderful to be riding
again in the outdoors/mountainous areas that one isn't often
exposed/allowed to!
The sheer beauty of the area was totally overwhelming and one
couldn't help but slow down and try and absorb the view of
the mountains, dams and surrounding vegetation.
A most enjoyable time was had by all, and we will unanimously
be back!!! Looking forward to your week long excursions.
Best Regards

Thanks for all the care and trouble you guys went to on the
tour I had a fantastic time.
Please let me know when you are touring on the long trip to
the Cedarburg I really would like to see the bushman rock paintings
next time.

Hi Brian
Just a note to thank you again for yesterday
Having never driven a quad-bike or motorbike before,
I was a little nervous about steering the bike and getting
the gears right, but after 10 minutes was feeling much more
comfortable and quite confident. The route was really interesting,
with just enough rugged terrain to make it challenging and
after an hour I felt like a real pro! And then there was still
the rest of the afternoon to really see where the bikes could
go!
I now can't wait to get back onto the bike and do it all again,
this time for a full day trip.
So - thanks for the best afternoon I have had in a really long
time - Trevor said the look on my face
was worth every cent he paid!
Cheers

Hi Brian
back home in England at last and have already recommended your
nature discovery tours to all our friends.
What a fantastic way to explore the Grabouw-Elgin valley. Each
of our three tours was different and exhilarating. For Yvonne & Donna
it was there first time on Quad Bikes and they cannot stop
talking about the fun they had and the wonderful plants and
mountain scenery. Nick our grandson 15 had a great time on
the bike and Dave and I agreed that words would not be enough
to describe what was for us the perfect adventure. Thanks again,
will see you in 2005 for our seven day tour.

Dear Brian,
How does one describe something as good as the trip my son
(14) and I just experienced with you. Better than anyone can
ever imagine! The fun we had matched the scenery - awesome!
The informative discussions certainly re-opened our eyes to
the wonders of nature and the amazing diversity of the area.
I am sure the ear to ear grins on our faces will soon make
place for withdrawal symptoms - so we are already planning
the two day trip!
Thanks again- not only do we recommend it strongly - but we
are ready to become "frequent flyers".
Best regards 'till next time,
